A5: "OK" feels specific to the reader, IMHO, but some titles I think would appeal: Elatsoe by Darcie Little Badger, All the Pretty Things by Emily Arsenault, The Agony of Bun O'Keefe by Heather Smith, Needlework by Julia Watts, Like Other Girls by Britta Lundin. #MGBookChat https://t.co/Bk153gKOK9

Happy #bookbirthday to Jordan J and the Truth About Jordan J by @karianneholt! If you love a #middlegrade novel in verse - esp one that captures all the ups & downs of middle school - put the whole Kids Under the Stairs series on your radar. #EMLAHoopla https://t.co/2LsUnjJcct https://t.co/wa9xmeud1P

A3: The Double Life of Danny Day by Mike Thayer was pretty fun. I also think thrillers are fun, so I'd also shout out I Know Your Secret by Daphne Benedis-Grab. Elvis, Me, and the Lemonade Stand Summer by Leslie Gentile was delightful. #MGBookChat https://t.co/A61PIiy26s

A1: I loved The Girl in the Lake by India Hill Brown, an immersive ghost story that's seriously page-turny. Follow Me by K. R. Alexander - good, quick read. Ophie's Ghosts by Justina Ireland had an ending I DID NOT see coming. (Love when books do this!) #MGBookChat https://t.co/Mg0nu06yym

Apparently it is spooky season! If you are looking for a moderately unsettling #middlegrade book to read, might I recommend The Green Children of Woolpit? Come for a retelling of an oddity from two unrelated medieval chronicles, stay for the unusual pig! https://t.co/lkTQ9HuTPa https://t.co/i76Oa26EeU

Happy #bookbirthday to Jumper by @MelanieACrowder! Grab this #ya #thriller for that reader you know who loves a ripped-from-the-headlines survival story. (Also, OMG THAT COVER.) #EMLAHoopla https://t.co/tQaEy7d3Ew https://t.co/Y5WnbK23Lj

A very happy (slightly belated) #bookbirthday to The Rescuer of Tiny Creatures by Curtis Manley and illus by @lucyruth! Grab this #picturebook for that small person who can't walk past a worm stranded on the sidewalk - or the kid who shies away from them. https://t.co/cdcCDZbaoX https://t.co/AjWilcPPuA
